Question

3/4(x-12) =12 solve for x

Answer 1

x=28

Explanation:

Answer 2

x = 28

Explanation:

`(3)/(4)( x - 12) = 12`

Multiply through by 4 to eliminate the fraction

That's

`4 * (3)/(4) (x - 12) = 12 * 4 \\ 3(x - 12) = 48`

Expand the terms in the bracket

`3x - 36 = 48`

Add 36 to both sides of the equation

That's

`3x + 36 - 36 = 48 + 36 \\ 3x = 84`

Divide both sides by 3

`(3x)/(3) = (84)/( 3) \\`

We have the final answer as

x = 28

Hope this helps you
